Can understand your excitement Grandmage, its great when things turn out good and you feel you can cope.

12 Jun, 2011

 

I seem to have missed some of your comments on here, thanks so much friends. Like you Bloomer it takes me days (on return from my daughters each week) to catch up with comments etc. and sometimes I just dont !! LOL.

Looking good Grandmage. Lawn edging is such a time saver - keeps the lawn out of the borders and all you have to do is walk round the edge with long handled shears. A doddle! A well edged lawn sets the garden off I think. :-)

19 Jun, 2011

 

I agree Muddy, even if there are loads of weeds and your edges are neat no one notices Lol.

19 Jun, 2011

 

its looking fab , madge .......... i love it . well worth the trouble

28 Jun, 2011

 

What is the small Tree almost at the end of the lawn, its a lovely shape.

28 Jun, 2011

 

Tks.Cristina still working hard on it but everything is growing so well and Stroller the tree is an early flowering cherry sometimes in blossom in November but this year it was February.
